Gasoline 02:57
Figures eights and Mock salutes The thing about booze is no one loses lucite tombs with ladders and chutes God is still magic to The ones that he chooses something moves- in the flowers Spreading like ivy - poison vines Drop your locks from the ivory tower If you're a prisoner you're a friend of mine And you smell like gasoline And you taste like a liar I will light up your lining I will set you on fire It happens fast - very suddenly Somebody else is now wearing your skin The dead still love long after they're dead As long as you invite them in -so invite them in Your world grows dark, but not dark enough The red tide laps up at your feet You must be stoic sweet child -act tough This dance has moved into the sweet street, the mean street I'll see you In between street When god has washed it clean street

Rook 03:38
Pat down the sleeves of the eloquent crook Live from the pages of your holiest book Climb down the mountain that your God shook Watch it all from the wings of the rook Billow smoke - billow dust - pillow dreams on high City chokes - city rusts - city screams then it sighs Snapping horses - clapping mad handed cries Poet faces - tassel traces of illuminated eyes Bring me your weak and your weary I'll parade them Bring me your voiceless prophet and I will persuade him Show me a light upon which I may change To see my soul rearrange - very strange Rook precious Rook - carry me gently to the top of the temple Rook terrible Rook - take my soul To the sun in the sky So hook me Rook - ohhh marry me To the queen of sensation Magical Rook - lead me on To the highest of high
